Some other arrangement must be made. "Ah!" thought he. "I have it!" He gestured toward the door. "Go," he commanded. "Go up the path, to the palisaded place. Take this rope. Bring back, with you a she-goat.
Sweet, meseems, is the whispering sound of yonder pine tree, goatherd, that murmureth by the wells of water; and sweet are thy pipings. After Pan the second prize shalt thou bear away, and if he take the horned goat, the she-goat shalt thou win; but if he choose the she-goat for his meed, the kid falls to thee, and dainty is the flesh of kids e'er the age when thou milkest them. The Goatherd.
For a period not confined to a single year it had been the custom of Yang Hu to offer to this elegant and refined maiden all the rarest pieces of jade which he could discover, while the most symmetrical and remunerative she-goat in his flock enjoyed the honourable distinction of bearing her incomparable name.
"Odd, if onything has befa'en puir Elshie," said Hobbie Elliot, "I wad rather I were harried ower again." He immediately rode to his dwelling, and the remaining she-goat came bleating to meet him, for her milking time was long past.
Ajo, it is simple as milking the she-goat yonder!" "If you knew my father better, Marc'antonio, you would find it not altogether so simple as you suppose.

The old woman opposite had not left her window, had continued watching the man, and waiting. "Whatever can she have to look at, that old she-goat?" said Madame Boche. "What a mug she has!" One could hear the loud voice of the zinc-worker up above singing, "Ah! it's nice to gather strawberries!" Bending over his bench, he was now artistically cutting out his zinc.
Nay, spun was all the thread that the Fates assigned, and Daphnis went down the stream. The whirling wave closed over the man the Muses loved, the man not hated of the nymphs. Give o'er, ye Muses, come, give o'er the pastoral song! And thou, give me the bowl, and the she-goat, that I may milk her and poor forth a libation to the Muses.
June 26. Better; and having no victuals to eat, took my gun, but found myself very weak; however, I killed a she-goat, and with much difficulty got it home, and broiled some of it, and ate; I would fain have stewed it, and made some broth, but had no pot. June 27. The ague again so violent, that I lay abed all day, and neither ate or drank.
But being now in the eleventh year of my residence, and, as I have said, my ammunition growing low, I set myself to study some art to trap and snare the goats, to see whether I could not catch some of them alive; and particularly I wanted a she-goat great with young.
